Latest Skid Row

Who doesn’t like a power ballad, that soft underbelly of a hard rocker, rarely seen in the light of day? You’ve probably heard the story…the power ballad is often the biggest hit for heavier bands, opening their music up to the love-song loving masses.

On January 24, Revolver and Guitar World teamed up to host the 2nd Annual Rock & Roll Roast at the Grove in Anaheim, California. The event honored Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider, who withstood a barrage of barbs and one-liners from a slew of rockers and comedians, including former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach, who roasted Snider with a video made just for the occasion.

Here's some video of Sebastian Bach and Steve Stevens performing the Billy Idol track "Rebel Yell" (which featured Stevens on guitar, of course) this past Saturday night at the Iridium in New York City.

Monday night, August 15, former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach and soul singer Ceel-Lo Green joined parody metal band Steel Panther on stage at the House Of Blues in West Hollywood. The duo led the band in several songs, including Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" and renditions of Skid Row's "I Remember You" and "Youth Gone Wild."

Sebastian Bach will release his new album, Kicking & Screaming, on September 27 via Frontiers Records. The first digital single from the album will be the title track, "Kicking & Screaming," which will be released on August 23.
